Do you ever wonder why a poorly described item sells and not yours?

Crazy eBay! UPDATE

For a low-key release, there is much to chew on in the seller update. I am thankful to not feel eBay's hand in my pocket as in past updates. Other first impressions: reckless changes to promoted listings to "fix" what I see as a minor annoyance (dupl...
